Samsung G810

Now this is strange. EISA’s (European Imaging and Sound Association) European Photo Phone award is usually reserved for Nokia phones, but this year it’s the Samsung G810 which got all the glory. Best of all (as far as Samsung is concerned), they’re using Nokia’s S60 platform for their baby.

We’ve already covered the G810 in the past. Let me just quickly recap the specs. The kick-ass device sports a 5 megapixel camera with 3x optical and 4x digital zoom and Xenon flash. In addition, Samsung’s smartphone features such digital camera technologies as face detection, image stabilizer, high ISO (up to 800), macro shot, panorama shot and mosaic and multi shot. Then there’s a GPS, WiFi, Bluetooth and much more on board… In a nutshell, we do agree with EISA’s decision. For now — until the phones with 8 megapixel cameras are released — the Samsung G810 is the best camera phone. Period!

Dusan has been using smartphones since their introduction and is now following the latest trends in the industry. The "convergence" is what he's most excited about, and writing about it is the next logical thing to do. He thinks that using a smartphone is what everyone who cares about their time should do. In addition to his interests in mobile phones, Dusan also loves to experiment with the latest web and mobile 2.0 services. The idea of accessing and managing your information from any device no matter where you are simply amazes him. Whether it's an online to-do list, note taking service or a video sharing social network, he's there to try it out. He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application. Dusan used to run SymbianWatch.com which later became part of IntoMobile. He lives in Serbia, South-East Europe, from where he edits the site on a daily basis.
